Do you not have friends/family who can PAYPAL you money?
Do you not have a credit card?

I just don't understand how you came up with no alternatives to surviving 8 days with $7.5

That being said, I would buy 2 loafs of bread, a small jar of peanut butter, and a small jar of jam. That should be under $7.5, and that can probably last you 8 days.

Ask random people for money and make up some story like "oh I need 10$ more for my bus ticket."

hehe ;D

Steal stuff. If you land yourself in jail, at least you'll get food.

Sorry but youre a fool. Why "starve" when you dont have to...


If you, or any one else giving him shit for not just borrowing money or having a credit card, read the thread, you'd know he doesn't want to spend money he doesn't have himself.

I disagree with his philosophy, but seriously, read the fucking thread.

Buy rice. Ramen doesn't give you enough energy to last... Ramen is more expensive to rice anyway.

I once survived on $10 for 15 days like that. Ate rice + what ever sauces and spices I had for the day.

I don't intend on repeating that experience tho like EVER. It's horrible.


I can't even imagine how your body would feel after 4 days.

Using a credit card is the fastest and easiest way. Its just using it to buy food for a couple of days. How much trouble can it be if the guy just spent $500 on shopping, paid phone + utilities, and paid off rent? Not to mention the money he spent building computers.
Its understandable to not use a credit card when you can't meet the payment/pay date. He can when he gets his paycheck.

Maybe he's telling the truth but it doesn't look so by his post. Some would agree with me.

Let's look at your last three blogs:

1. You are poor and starving but you're actually not.
2. You are a recovering alcoholic but you're actually not.
3. Your girlfriend is having a baby but she's actually not.

His "philosophy" is just a cover-up when people mentioned the obvious way.

Go to some grocery store and eat free samples :D

Try sneaking into free food events at universities if you're young enough.

lol you are that guy who convinced his girlfriend to get an abortion.

I call bullshit. You go to waterloo too right? I'd love to meet you in person and see how different you are IRL. Too bad I'll be gone after you come back from your work term.

Well you may be dead by now, but in case this happens again:
Aldi macaroni and cheese is about $0.30 a box, and if you make it even without milk or butter, that's like 1000 calories per box. Less than $1.00 for 2000 calories.

Teleport to China and you could live for a few months on that much money.

Sell some of the stuff you bought with those 500 dollars!!
